Fearing he may be in danger, Andi sets out to investigate. She finds an unlikely ally in her neighbor Cyrus, whose mother once worked for Nutrexo and is hiding secrets of her own. Their search for answers leads them to the head scientist at Nutrexo's confidential research facility, where they learn that the truth is more complicated--and more devastating--than they ever could have imagined.
